1 Syllabus SOSC5720 Economic Development in China Course Information Fall 2017 Instructor: Dr. Jin Wang Office: Room Class time and venue: Thursdays 13:30 16:20, Rm 2610, Lift Office Hours: Tuesdays, 3:30 4:30pm Course website: TA: Bin Huang Course Description This course focuses on economic reforms and development in China. We will study the pathology of Chinese economy, the largest developing economy in the world. In particular, we will try to explain what prevented China from economic development, why China s economic reform since 1978 created a rapid economic development and what the problems are in China s economic development. The course is a combination of solid analysis on Chinese institutions as well as comprehensive investigations on Chinese statistical data. Though we do use certain empirical papers as supporting evidence, this course does not place an emphasis on sheer statistical techniques. Nonetheless, basic knowledge in statistics or economics will benefit. Assessments The assessments of the course will be composed of three parts. 1. Assignments (20%): 2 assignments (10% each) Assignment Topics include *Get to know Chinese Statistical Data (an exercise on Chinese data searching and basic analysis) and some useful empirical methodology (an exercise on dealing with [Chinese] Statistical data: basic regression and interpretation of the results): to be submitted to TA in week 5. *1-2 page brief reading report on the main reference: to be submitted to TA in week Mid-term Group Presentation (35%):
2 The topics of the presentations will be chosen from the papers covered in this course. Depending on the enrollment size, we will split the class into several groups. The TA will distribute relevant papers to each group. When one group is presenting, the other group will act as discussants, i.e. stopping and asking the presenters questions. Students need to submit the presentation slides through their to the TA the day before the presentation. We will take a note of each group s performance (the extent of preparation, the clarification of the presentation, the Question and Answer session), in order to give fair grades. 3. Final term paper (45%): the final paper should be revolved around a topical issue in contemporary China. The references and topics covered in the course might provide you with some helpful guidelines. And for those of you who already acquired sound quantitative skills you can choose to undertake empirical analysis using available datasets. You are welcome to consult me regarding the choice of your essay before working on it. The last week of the class November 30 th, 2017 will be reserved for you to present your own research in class. You may incorporate the comments received during your talk into the final revisions. The length of the final essay: no more than 20 pages. The submission date of the final paper: December 17 th, Please note that late submissions will NOT be accepted. Main Reference and Textbooks 1.
